Wake Tech identifies, evaluates and publishes goals and outcomes for student achievement appropriate to its mission, the diverse students it serves and the associate degrees, diplomas and certificates it offers. The college uses multiple measures to document student success, including national, state and institution-level measures.

Institutional measures

Wake Tech has developed objectives, measures and targets for each goal in the Reach and Rally Strategic Plan. These measures are aligned with national and state performance measures and provide leading indicators that allow Wake Tech to determine whether or not the strategies being implemented are resulting in measurable change.
